All humanitarians should be OUTRAGED by how the Hamas jihadi regime forced the Red Cross to take part in its Hunger Games-style hostage ceremony.

Antisemitism is a crisis in Canada, and healthcare is no exception. In fact, at the Jewish Medical Association of Ontario, our survey has uncovered how deeply Canadian Jewish MDs are impacted. The results of JMAO's survey of Canadian Jewish doctors are chilling. Thread:

I am a first generation Canadian and Quebecker Jew and as I watch my hometown of Montreal descend into chaos, with law and order seemingly abandoned to appease masked and hateful cowards, I feel compelled to share my perspective. To those trying to make sense of the situation in Montreal and Quebec, here are my thoughts. A thread 🧵

I have thought of Shiri Bibas and her children (her nine-month-old baby Kfir and her four-year-old son Ariel) every day for a year. Look at her face.

I’m with her. I will always be with her. No manner of mental gymnastics will ever convince me to not be with her. If you need to do mental gymnastics to sympathise with him more than her, you’re cooked.

The whole Jewish world is in floods of uncontrollable tears right now. Tears of happiness, tears of pent-up fears and anxieties and frustrated expectations letting loose. Four hostages. Rescued. Alive. #AmYisraelChai

The rise in antisemitism is impacting Ve'ahavta’s work. We have just issued a statement to Toronto Mayor @OliviaChow and all @cityofTO councilors, asking them to take action against antisemitism in our city. Read our statement and take action, too. 👉 bit.ly/4bNuwpy

Outstanding oral presentation by Marina Boutros Salama on impact of intimate relationships on mental health of medical residents. So many important themes that resonated - can’t wait to discuss with my partner. Congrats Marina! #NERD2024

Learning about using electronic health record data to perform assessment for medical learners, in particular in setting of interdependence/care teams. Got me thinking about how to measure resident contribution in Labour and Delivery or in GYN OR. @StefSebok #NERD2024

Thank you @AHousefather for speaking up. I want to know that my kindergarten kid is safe at her Jewish school every day. @JustinTrudeau - please understand that the Jewish community is terrified by the fever pitch of #antisemitism in Canada. All Canadians deserve to feel safe.
Today in the House of Commons, MP @AHousefather called out the rising antisemitism in Canada and called on the Government of Canada to:   1.Designate the IRGC and Samidoun as terrorist entities in Canada 2.Adopt criminal code amendments to protect schools, places of worship and community centres the same as we did for hospitals in the pandemic.      We need action from the federal government to protect Jews in Canada. #cdnpoli

“What should a country do to return its innocents? Tell me?” “When you call for a ceasefire you must also call for the release of our daughters” Five mothers of 19 year old Israeli girls who were abducted by Hamas 8 months ago, are begging for the world to hear their cry 💔

This amazingly brave woman awed the world when braying mobs tried to drown her out—and she took Europe by storm. So honored to introduce Eden Golan at Hostages Square for the world debut of Israel’s original, uncensored #Eurovision song: October Rain. 📸 @alexirosenfeld /Getty

Unthinkable. I can’t imagine how any parent in the world could think imprisoning these young girls is an act of resistance. Let them go immediately.
These girls have spent 224 days in the hands of murderers and rapists. They are still in the depths of Gaza. Demand their freedom. Scream for their freedom. #BringThemHome

Tonight, Eden Golan showed the best of the Israeli spirit. Despite hate and threats, she refused to be intimidated. She blew it out of the water. And by coming second in the public vote, fifth overall, she gave her nation hope and a rare moment of joy. TODA RABA 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
